Editorial Review for Locust Bar – by Mike Kennedy

In Short
This neighborhood bar serves up uncomplicated food and drink to a diverse local clientele. Drawn in by cheap prices and a comfy, unpretentious atmosphere, med students from Jefferson Hospital drink with construction workers, yuppies and fashionable urbanites. The narrow bar features a jukebox with classic rock and booths for friends to gather with their pitchers of Yeungling Lager ($5 on Wednesdays). Lagers and Buds are popular, but the taps pour Flying Fish and other highbrow brews.

THis is my favorite dive bar in the city. I am very sad that Donna no longer works there as she was my favorite bartender, but all the bartenders are great! If you like quizzo then you'll want to stop in on a Tuesday night. Quizzo starts at 7:30, but get there early if you want a seat!

Pros: bartenders, prices, customers

Cons: , loud
